!So why didn't he get charged with speeding?
You know exactly why and if they had clear evidence from his phone or OBC I can promise you he would've got charged with it.
If ya don't think LEO's don't overcharge on particular traffic violations you're clueless.
Because he took a plea deal.
If he was innocent and had the evidence you are stating, he does NOT need to take a plea.
If you show the DA evidence that shows your innocent, then the DA is just going to drop the case completely. That isn't what happened, so there is no reason to assume he had any data you are suggesting. And if he did have such data and his lawyer allowed him to take a plea, then he's got a really shitty lawyer.

Typically it means the prosecution doesn't have enough evidence to convict so they plea down the charges.
Not in a case like this.

Bingo. And for young people it's a way of giving them a 2nd chance.

Either way, it says legally Mondon is given a ticket and the more serious charges are dropped.
Do you have a different definition?
I have no issue with that, just the idea that a plea means someone was innocent of the original charges.

I don't give a shite about that. You're just another Georgia fan making excuses. The fact that you are doing it over a speeding ticket is what makes you all look so damn ridiculous.
I've never once suggested a player should be suspended, kicked off a team or any of the shite you are assuming for your own comfort. In fact, I think all of that is stupid and mostly just PR shite, as if the only real forms of punishment are public forms, and as if it's always the football programs place to do the punishing when we have a justice system specifically for said things.
So find another fantasy.

Or maybe they just felt it wasn't serious enough to pursue. Y'all seem to think it more serious than the court system did.

He might have been. I don't know. I do know that apparently the courts felt it was not worth pursuing, so of course the Rant is going to?
My next question is, why do you and the other posters find this so horrifying if the courts do not?

People are innocent until proven guilty. He wasn’t proven guilty of reckless driving. If it was a slam dunk either way he wouldn’t be given a plea bargain and have accepted it. Both were mitigating their risk of losing the original case by signing the plea bargain.

It's the type of case that indicates it.

I just know how these things work from experience. I never said it was serious, I said a plea is not an indication of innocence.

Well a plea is not evidence of it. The only thing I'm pursing are dumb Georgia fans making bullshite excuses/claims.

Could not give less of a shite about the actual case or person.

Mind your own business, your Saviour took a transfer of a known woman beater then let him beat another woman.

I don't give a shite. We have a justice system to deal with these things, if there is an issue of someone not getting the proper punishments they deserve, it should be something that applies to everyone and should be handled by the justice system, not just football players on a football team.
So take it up with the justice system and stop trying to use whataboutisms to avoid real debate.

We don't give a shite what you think about UGA. Justice system is garbage....

I never said a single word about Georgia or how they've handled it.
That said, I don't believe you.

Plea bargains. How do they work

By law enforcement overcharging people so they'll plea bargain down.

This is why almost every single misdemeanor is pled out. They do not have the resources to try every case. They’re not going to slam down their iron fists on a traffic offense that didn’t hurt anyone. They’ll offer a reduced charge to get the case done and out of their case load

I do misdemeanor defense work on the side as part of my practice. Almost everyone in that court room at docket call is guilty as charged. And almost every one of them agrees to a deal that is pled down to something less serious. It’s called judicial economy

It was a speeding case. I doubt they put too much brain power into it.

Well a plea is not evidence of it. The only thing I'm pursing are dumb Georgia fans making bullshite excuses/claims.
But, of course we will spend all kinds of time and energy over a speeding citation.
